Leave it to Jets fans to come up with most brilliant and petty billboard ever. It’s not secret that any fan of a team in the AFC East hates the New England Patriots. That said, should we be shocked by the level of contempt?
Here’s a quote from Outfront Media’s communications director Carly Zipp, provided by NY Daily News:
Carly Zipp, the communications director for Outfront Media, said her company was approached Monday by a group of “anonymous Jets fans.”
“Jets fans are very opinionated,” said Zipp, who would not reveal how much the group spent. “Because billboards are something that is seen by everyone, they knew the power of message and they wanted to it get it out.”
Zipp said since it’s an electronic billboard, it was easy to get them up Tuesday morning, and that they will be up the rest of the week.
The 12 billboards can be found throughout the New Jersey at these locations: I-95 (NJ Turnpike) near exit 15E in Newark; I-95 (NJ Turnpike) near exit 16 in Newark; I-95 (NJ Turnpike) south of exit 13A in Newark; Lincoln Tunnel Helix at the toll plaza; I-78 in Newark at exit 56; I-78 in Newark at Toll Plaza at Route 1&9; Route 9 in Old Bridge, just north of Route 516; I-80 at Garden State Parkway; Garden State Parkway at Driscoll Bridge Toll Plaza (both sides); SR-72 near Route 9 in Manahawkin and Route 35 at Shark River Bridge in Avon by the Sea.
